Meditation 🧘🏾‍♀️

For centuries, meditation has been used to help people find the positive energy inside themselves.

When you have negative thoughts, those thoughts ultimately lead to an increase in stress because you begin to believe the negativity.

Meditation teaches you how to observe your thoughts and not give them any energy.

By not giving them any energy, you are not allowing them to rule your life.

Those who meditate regularly find that stressful situations no longer overwhelm them as much.

When they take the time to sit in silence and collect your thoughts the amount of stress that is reduced is significant.

Meditation requires you to breathe deeply,🌬which will oxygenate your brain🧠 and give you more energy.⚡️

You can take this amazing habit with you anywhere you go!

It is like your very own personal, portable stress reliever.

To enhance your meditation sessions, you can also purchase a diffuser and put a few drops of essential oils in it and allow the soothing aroma along with the calming light show it has to transport you to a place of peace.

You can even throw on some calming meditation music 🎶 to aid you during your meditation sessions as well.

This is what I do!

Creativity🎨

Getting creative can be one of the best ways to deal with stress.

The best part is you don’t have to be an artist🎨 in order to be successful.

There have been many studies which directly link using the creative side of your brain to reduce stress.

One of the best ways to activate that creative side of your brain is through coloring books and I do not mean the kid ones!
